Prime Sensory Wand is expertly handcrafted by Zofia and her support team in Florida created in primary colors to celebrate people with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD.) This wand’s design is inspired by the blue, red and yellow interlocking, puzzle piece which reflects the complexity of the autism spectrum. The different colors and shapes represent the diversity of the people and families living with the condition. Each wand is decoupaged onto a wooden dowel in alternating patterns and contains different ribbons hand-chosen by Zofia for their various textures attached by a split ring to allow for free, flowing movement. A durable black foam grip is added to each wand’s base conforming uniquely to the hand creating more comfort and less fatigue. Providing structured sensory activities throughout the day can help prevent unregulated behaviors and give children the input they crave!

Zofia’s story behind Sensory Wands:
Zofia, who has multiple diagnoses of Down Syndrome (DS), Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), and Sensory Processing Disorder (SPD), began creating and using sensory fidget wands in response to her own increasing sensory needs in order to manage her emotions and better regulate herself.
Zofia, like others with neurodevelopmental differences such as ASD and ADHD, shows unusual responses to sensory experiences compared to other typically developing children of the same chronological age. As an under responsive sensory seeker, Zofia’s brightly colored and stimulating wands give her a variety of needed sensory input, including tactile, visual & auditory that is both therapeutic and entertaining!
‘Zofia’s sensory fidget wands provide multi-sensory input and encourage gross motor development. The varied textures are wonderful and give a child great tactile experience. The build-up handle is also an exceptional feature, not only for grasp, but also for squeezing.’ Christina M. Duskin, OTR/L
